Poems (Browning)/Before the Dawn

​
Before the Dawn
O silent hush before the dawn!
 When streams and brooks announce the sun;
"He comes!" they babble to the stones,
 And waking flowers nod, "He comes".

He comes at break of trembling morn,
 A mighty spirit of the light,
Glorious and infinite,
 And waning night proclaims, "He comes".
